Red White And Black Chapter 5 Summary
Red, White, and Black, Chapter 5, by Gary B. Nash talks about many different wars, rebellions, and colonization's that go on with the coastal societies in the 1600s. I learned that in Metacom’s war “some of the coastal tribes were prepared to risk extinction rather than become a colonized and culturally imperialized people”(Nash 110). This interested me by the way they stood up for what they wanted and would not give up even if it costed their

    chapter 8-16 Summaries

    The physical remains of humanly made artifacts form the bulk of the archaeological record. The artifacts that are found by archaeologists may not represent the range of objects actually used because certain materials preserve better than others. For this reason, stone tools and ceramics dominate the archaeological record. Objects made of fabric, cord, skin, and other organic materials no doubt date back to the very earliest archaeological periods but they rarely survive. The introduction of pottery in a culture seems to coincide with the adoption of a sedentary way of life.…

    Devil in the White City Book Summary

    The Devil in the White City, written by Eric Larson, is a gripping novel of two polar opposite men during the building of the World’s Fair in Chicago. It surrounds two characters, both extremely talented at their ‘craft’ and perfectly depicts the rush for industrialization in this time. It follows the lives of Daniel H. Burnham, the fair's brilliant director of works and the builder of many of the country's most important structures, and Henry H. Holmes, a serial killer who built a hotel turned torture chamber complete with a dissection table, gas chamber, and crematorium. This story is so interesting because it details true life events and uses real life characters such as Susan B. Anthony, Thomas Edison, and Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Meshing these two characters together enhances the intensity of the story and truly shows the effect of the building of the World’s Fair on Chicago in late 1880 and early 1890.…

    Red Badge Of Courage Summary

    Red Badge of Courage is about a young soldier named Henry Fleming,who is drafted during the war. The book traces the thread of emotions and reactions to events that he goes through, in the civil war. Being an an average farmer from New York, Henry wanted to go to war and become a hero like the ones he has read about in his school. The book starts off with a bunch of boys sitting at camp by the river, and while everyone is thinking about what they will do in war and how heroic they would be, Henry was thinking of how he would react when he goes to the battlefields. How would he react if he was severely injured or even died? Though he said that, no matter what happens he will not run from a fight or a battle, he did, during the second war, when he was scared and he saw a few other soldiers scamper due to the smoke. Henry kept telling himself through and through that he was protecting himself, even when the…

    King Philip's War and the Pueblo Revolt

    Despite being separated by an entire continent, King Phillip’s War and The Pueblo Revolt paralleled each other in their causes, courses, and consequences. In New England, King Philip’s War was a conflict between the Wampanoag Indians and the English settlers of the Plymouth Colony from1675 to 1677. Far, far away in what is now New Mexico, the Pueblo Revolt was an uprising of Pueblo Indians against the Spanish settlers in the colony of Santa Fe de Nuevo México in 1680. Their similarities explain much about the relationships between Native Americans and European colonists at the time.…

    The nature of the relationship between the Indians and the English along the Atlantic seaboard in the years 1600 to 1700 was peaceful but became hostile as the century wore on, as evidenced by the peaceful relations, social disputes, and political clashes which occurred between the two groups. With various approaches to peace in various portions of the Atlantic seaboard, many various groups saw very differentiating outcomes from their attempts. As hard as both sides tried, either of the sides were overwhelmed with the human nature of being greedy and desire for more, which led to actions that no one had expected.…

    A CONQUERING SPIRIT

    In the mind of the Creeks, the battle was more than just a fight for survival; it was a struggle to tenaciously hold on to traditions and culture which the Creeks felt to be under attack by American colonists. As John Walton Caughey mentions in McGillivray of the Creeks, “Our lands are our life and breath, if we part with them, we part with our blood. We must fight for them.”1 This statement seemed to be a common theme among the Upper Creeks. American colonists and the government hoped the Creeks could be assimilated in a peaceful manner into American society through negotiations and financial enticements: “Westward expansion could then proceed in an orderly way, with Indian population retreating before the advancing American frontier or assimilating with American society.”2 The mainstay of…

    Colonization and Conflict in the South, 1600-1750

    Instead of becoming havens for the English poor and unemployed, or models of interracial harmony, the southern colonies of seventeenth-century North America were weakened by disease, wracked by recurring conflicts with Native Americans, and disrupted by profit-hungry planters’ exploitation of poor whites and blacks alike. Many of the tragedies of Spanish colonization and England’s conquest of Ireland were repeated in the American South and the British Caribbean. Just as the English established their first outpost on Chesapeake Bay with a set of goals and strategies in mind, so too the native Indians of that region pursued their own aims and interests. They had recently been consolidated by the weroance (or chief), Powhatan, into a powerful confederacy. Powhatan used the English newcomers to advance his own longstanding objectives. Although he considered the colonists a nuisance, Powhatan welcomed trade goods and English weapons as a means to consolidate his political authority and to fend off challenges from the Piedmont tribes. The future of the English settlers, plagued by disease, starvation, and leadership struggles, did not seem secure. Powhatan could have destroyed them, but chose not to do so. Around the time of his death, the colonists’ efforts at tobacco farming began to take off, which eventually would have disastrous implications for Powhatan’s people. In the following decades, bloody wars broke out between the Indians and settlers, but the Virginia settlement began to stabilize; by 1650, it could claim some 15,000 colonists. Increasing demand for labor in the tobacco fields and a decrease in indentured servants caused a greater reliance of the enslavement of Indians and the importation of African slaves.…

    The Sovereignty And Goodness Of God Analysis

    From reading Mary Rowlandson’s captivity narrative and other English-language sources relating to Metacom’s or King Philip’s War, one can derive a fairly clear understanding of how English participants viewed the origins and outcomes of the conflict as well as how they wanted posterity to interpret the war. The English did not try to show the indigenous side, but a critical reading of the sources can give us some clues to understand the indigenous experience. The Natives had contrasting cultural and psychological views from the European invaders that caused them to initiate and eventually lose King Philip’s War, leaving the participants…
